1980’s Paulet Cognac Grand Fine Cognac Ecusson Rouge

Colour: Deep amber.

Nose: This old wonder is elegant and floral. Whiffs of incense, reseda, orange blossom, honeydew, fig cake… There’s also a very delicate oakiness,but the raisins are well there. And so are Cognac’s beloved peaches and apricots! A totally glorious, very complex nose.

Mouth: A crazy freshness!This is just a symphony of ripe peaches, shy(ish) raisins, small oranges, cedar wood, and tiny herbs and spices. Dill, for example. Sure there’s also quite some coffee and bitter chocolate, but both are under control.

Finish: Fantastic
